Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 110-112 Ralston Street in Ingleside Heights, owned by Gabriel Y Ng & Mei Yee Lam, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1982. The property experienced significant maintenance issues in early 2014, with multiple violations documented on January 29th related to electrical systems and interior surfaces. These violations, including problems with overhead lighting, electrical systems, and mold/mildew issues, were formally noticed on February 7, 2014, and were successfully abated by March 11, 2014. The violations were reported as having persisted for approximately four years prior to resolution and were consolidated under a single housing inspection case number (201448753) covering both units. Following these issues, the owners undertook a significant improvement project in June 2014, costing $5,000, to install Hardie plank siding over existing plywood siding on the building's rear face and to repaint both the front and back of the building, though this work was not visible from the street. The most recent reported issue was a 311 call in March 2019 regarding general street cleaning and loose garbage, which was resolved, but this appeared to be related to the street rather than the building itself and was not a structural or maintenance issue.

Risk rating

How 110-112 Ralston St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 45 buildings in this neighborhood, 19 are predicted to be safer.
